COURTESY LISTED DOG.  DISCLAIMER.We hope that you will consider adopting Gideon.  He is a courtesy listed dog. This means that he is not a part of or associated with Best Friend Pet Adoption (BFPA). The bio information listed for him was provided by individual caregivers and not generated or verified by BFPA. Adoption arrangements will be a private arrangement between you and his rescuer.  As with any dog adoption, BFPA encourages potential adopters to gain as much information as possible before adopting.

COMMENTS ABOUT GIDEON: Gideon is a sweet guy looking for a new home. He is super friendly with people of all ages. He would do best with someone who is very patient, and who is willing to teach him that not everything is scary. Gideon's favorite place is right next to you, and he is perfectly content to hang around the house all day. He is crate trained and has lived with a dog-friendly cat. He is not sure about other dogs, so should probably be an only dog. All Dogs Allowed is offering a training sponsorship to help Gideon's future adopters continue to work with him on building confidence. If you are interested in learning more about Gideon, please contact Elizabeth at  redsbury@gmail.com.  DO NOT FILL OUT A BFPA APPLICATION.  CONTACT THE OWNER DIRECTLY.
